Should I Drop Calvin Ridley? Fantasy Football Outlook For Week 7

ROTOBALLER NFL WAIVER WIRE STOCK IMAGE

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley has high expectations after signing a massive free-agent contract with the team in the offseason.

Unfortunately, the Titans' passing attack has been awful most weeks.

Should fantasy football players drop Ridley, or will the veteran wide receiver turn things around?

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2024:

 

Should I Drop Calvin Ridley?

Ridley is the WR68 this season, averaging 6.7 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. He had 22.7 fantasy points in the Week 2 loss to the New York Jets, totaling four receptions on six targets for 77 receiving yards and a touchdown. The veteran also had a 10-yard rushing touchdown in the game.

Unfortunately, Ridley has struggled since that performance. He has two receptions on 14 targets for 14 receiving yards and 4.3 fantasy points over the past three games. Last week, the former Alabama star had zero receptions on eight targets, ending the game with nine rushing yards and 0.9 fantasy points.

While Ridley’s struggles aren’t his fault, fantasy players can drop the veteran wide receiver. Tennessee’s passing attack has been one of the worst in the NFL this year.

 

Who Can I Add Off The Waiver Wire?

Fantasy players should target Xavier Legette off the waiver wire this week. The rookie receiver is rostered in only 19% of Yahoo leagues. He has been productive since taking over as the No. 2 wide receiver with Adam Thielen out of the lineup because of a hamstring injury.

Legette left the Week 5 matchup against the Chicago Bears with a shoulder injury after totaling one target. However, the rookie has had nine receptions on 14 targets for 89 receiving yards, two touchdowns, and 26.4 fantasy points in the other two games since taking over as a starter, totaling 9.8 or more in both contests.

The former South Carolina star has an appealing matchup in Week 7 against the Washington Commanders. Legette is a mid-range WR3 with upside until Thielen returns to the lineup.
